Meilleur restaurant indien dans la grande région de Montréal! Enfin un restaurant du Sud de l'Inde sur la rive-sud! Ça goûte exactement comme la nourriture que j'ai mangé en Inde! 😍 Première fois que je trouve des idlis & des uttapans au Canada & ils sont tellement bons. Peu importe la journée qu'on commande, la nourriture goûte toujours aussi bon, contrairement aux autres restaurants indiens de la région où les mêmes recettes goûtent complètement différentes d'une journée à l'autre dépendamment des cuisiniers. C'est le seul restaurant indien où nous commandons maintenant & nous ne sommes jamais déçus!

We had the chili cheese masala dosa & onion rava masala dosa, the sambar & 2 chutneys were so rich in flavuors. I can say that most restaurants cannot match this quality.

Must try!! From a person who's lived in Southern India for 6 years. 😄😄
